Mosque in Berlin

In the West everyone currently has the freedom to choose their religion, god, God, etc. I hope that Muslims will continue to try and integrate into the German way of livingand now they have their dedicated place of worship in Berlin, they do not become insular and withdaw into ghetto's as they seem to have done in other European cities/countries - which is a great shame, and does not make any sense i.e. why move to a country, claim citizenship and then not try and come into agreement with that countries customs and practices - might as well not have gone there in the first place!!??
